Pistons.
It's a joke 2009-11's have a very common problem. Steering lock failure. A common forum solution was to take this fuse out.

I'm almost 40, but I act like I am 12 does that count?

This forum has to be one of the best car forums out there. We don't really hate on any other cars besides the civics and the Prius-and for a lot of good reasons. The Civic forums and owners are the most retarded brain dead asswads I have ever encountered. The Prius, is well, just an all around hate-able thing.

I'll throw in my 2 cents and say when shopping for a 370, get a warrantied vehicle. I have a '12 and have only had a few problems, but they would have been expensive to fix. Steering rack leaking, and valve cover I think was the other one, maybe a bushing or something as well. Anyway, the service department at the dealer I bought the car from was second to none, can't say enough good things about Connell Nissan.

The car does have a bit of a high maintenance cost to keep it in good order, and it is not light on the gas bill either. I can't imagine paying for this car when I was 18. Premium fuel and synthetic oil costs, and expensive brakes/tires are something to take into consideration as well.

@GSS138, lol. My350z.com was crazy! They bashed everything and everyone. The camaro forum is relaxed till Mopar or Ford is mentioned, Ford goes ape with Chevy and Mopar comments. Oddly enough the challenger talk forum never goes crazy. I totally understand getting a warranty, they're expensive vehicles and not cheap on gas. He goes to school, works and sells his clothing brand. He stays afloat, it motivates him at least. We live in Sacramento and it feels like every single dealership here has a terrible service department. My friend had a civic which he stated had 350 horses with an intake and exhaust lol. Prius owners drive me nuts, they're jackasses when they drive. I'm cruising in my Moby **** of a vehicle and they cut me off like I'm in a hybrid. Obviously when I romp it they'll hear me coming but most of the times they don't care and act like they have the greatest car. His 350z was averaging 15.5 mpg lol, it can't be worse than that on a 370. I hope. Does anyone know how to quote with the tapatalk app?? I feel like a chimp.

So much agreement! Yes I'd say we only hate on the Civic and Prius. From what I've seen, Civic owners for some strange reason think their modded SI doing 240whp will somehow perform as well as the 370 on the track.

We have Mustang owners and Camaro owners on this forum and I think they are treated with respect. The only time I think you will see our members act a little childish is the "370Z vs XXX" or the "Which should I buy 370Z or Lada" threads. I am guilty of the childish behavior. People should not make a 30k investment based on other peoples opinions...go to the dang dealership and test drive them, read reviews from multiple car magazines. It's like showing up to a Chevy dealer and asking which should you get, a Camaro or a Mustang. Obviously there will be a bias.
